As you may have seen from the TV ads, Wickes are offering 1,000's of
price cuts under the 'Red Pencil Prices' campaign.

One slight snag - they haven't reduced the price of......












Red Pencils :-)

A red pencil to me has red 'lead' The colour of the pencil body not
important. Given the majority of ordinary pencils are any old colour.

Ah! But they're giving 1 away free at the checkouts to every customer. I
chatted up the bored checkout girl and she let me take a handful I
currently have 1 behind my ear as I type this.

They seem to be cutting prices by a few pence and making a big fuss about
it. A whole 40p off an £8.99 saw? I could hardly contain my indifference.

My thoughts exactly.

B&Q Tradepoint is another example. The other day producing my
Tradepoint card got me a reduction of 29p.

I just didn't know what to spend it on.

I could probably get a better discount with my B&Q "wrinkly card"!

If you want bigger discounts, just give them a while. They need a chance
to raise their prices a bit more first...
